Abstract:
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a drift-scan radio telescope designed to map large scale structure in the universe using the redshifted 21 cm line emitted by neutral hydrogen. By observing the 400 to 800 MHz frequency band, CHIME will measure the expansion rate of the universe in the redshift range z = 0.8 - 2.5 to constrain the nature of dark energy.
